Dead Lawyers Don't Lie by Mark Nolan **Review**

BLURB:

The
killer aimed his weapon at the pregnant lawyer's rounded belly. He said
"Bye-bye baby," and pulled the trigger. War veteran Jake Wolfe and
his former military dog are targeted next. They must stop the assassin, or die
trying. An action-packed thriller from beginning to end. Dead Lawyers Don’t Lie
has been a #1 bestseller in Pulp Thrillers, and among the most popular books in
Kindle Unlimited All-Stars.

Review:This was a long read, but boy was it good! The author has such talent in writing and keeping the reader intrigued and interested in the story. I picked up this book with the plan to read a few chapters at a time during the weekend but I could not put it down. The characters were well developed with a great plot and a believable story-line. I loved that it was fast paced but didn't move so fast that I was confused or lost. With all of the twists, turns, and surprises, this book kept me turning the page and guessing until the very end. I love thrillers so this was definitely my cup of coffee!

Excerpt:

Jake was a people watcher and his observant eyes took in
details about the various individuals who were walking by. He noticed an
attractive, well-dressed woman who wore her gray hair in an up-do style. She
reminded him of his own grandmother, so full of life and love and wisdom. As
she was getting into her car, a man grabbed her purse and tore it from her
hand. The purse snatcher shoved her to the ground as he took off running toward
Jake’s vehicle. Jake reacted without thinking, and he opened his car door into
the path of the running man. He shoved the door fast and hard, and he
straight-armed it like a football player.

The door and the purse snatcher collided, and the door won.
The thief’s face smacked into the window, and his knees banged against the
metal. He bounced off hard and landed flat on his back on the pavement,
dropping the purse as he fell. Jake got out of his vehicle, closed the door and
stood there looking down at the man. A bruise was forming on the man’s
forehead. He struggled to his knees, and he glanced at the purse on the ground
near Jake’s feet. Jake shook his head at him.

“Leave it.”

The man looked Jake up and down, and saw his worst case
scenario, a vigilante who still believed in chivalry.
